payments.

completion of the Sprint Promotion. It is not allowed to purchase additional credits in the store or make

use of these.

44. The Participant agrees to not change their time-zone in their Lingoda account during the whole

promotion. If the Participant needs to travel between time-zones, or there are regional time-zone

changes during the Promotion, it is the Participant’s responsibility to book their classes accordingly. The

Sprint Promotion Rules

time-zone at the start of the Sprint Promotion will be taken as the Participant’s time-zone for the

duration of the Promotion. The Participant agrees it is their responsibility to organise their desired time-

zone before the start date of the Sprint Promotion.

CLASSES

45. The Participant agrees that they need to book their classes at least 7 days in advance in order to

make sure that there is a class available at their desired time, date and level. If the Participant does not

book their lessons at least 7 days in advance, Lingoda does not guarantee that there will be classes

available at the Participant’s desired time.

46. The Participant can only cancel classes at least 7 days in advance, or within the 30 minute

immediate-cancel window from within their Lingoda account. The Participant agrees that, if they do

not cancel their lessons more than 7 days in advance or immediately, the Promoter will not refund or

reschedule the booked lesson and the Participant is no longer eligible for a refund of the course fee.

The cut-off for this deadline is exactly 7 days, i.e. 168 hours, before the start date/time of a class.

47. The Participant has to attend classes fully (60 minutes) for them to count as completed for the Sprint

Promotion. The Participant must actively participate (talking and actively listening) in the class, with

functioning microphone, speakers and display.

48. If the Participant leaves a class part way through, arrives late or leaves early, this class will not count

to qualify for the Sprint Promotion refund and they will not be able to count these classes toward the

Sprint Promotion. Attendance is measured with the system information provided by the class log. In case

of discrepancy, the system’s log and the information provided by the teacher will be the only valid data

that we use.

49. If the Participant does not attend a class due to reasons for which the Promoter is not responsible

(may it be health, job, technical, personal, weather-related issues, or any other), the Promoter will not

refund the class and the Participant will be automatically disqualified for the refund, regardless of

whether they have additional class credits due to any circumstances and regardless of any other

circumstances.

50. It is the Participant’s responsibility to ensure they have a stable Internet connection and the

Sprint Promotion Rules

required technical settings. The full list of requirements to participate in the online classes, can be found

here. In addition, Lingoda does not take responsibility for any classes on a 3G or LTE connection where

the quality is affected. If the Participant cannot attend a full class due to a bad Internet connection or

other technicalities, including microphone or speaker issues, the Promoter will not refund this class, i.e.

the Participant will be disqualified for the refund automatically.

51. Any inappropriate behaviour from the Participant during classes may result in the Participant being

disqualified for the refund, including abusive, rude, sexual or disturbing conduct in any way. The Teacher

has the right to remove the offending Participant from the class, and in the case of dispute, the

Teacher’s view will be taken.

52. If the class doesn’t happen due to technical problems or other issues on the Promoter’s

side, the class credit will be refunded within 72 hours and the Participant does not need to take an

additional class that day. The class in question will count towards the Participant’s Sprint Promotion

progress. If a class credit is refunded by the system due to a class cancellation on the Promoter’s side, it is

the responsibility of the student to use the class credit after the end of the Sprint Promotion. After the

end of the Sprint Promotion the participant needs to contact the Promoter in order to use the class

credits refunded (regardless if the Participant continues with any subscription or not).

53. Even if the Participant doesn’t comply with the rules of the challenge the Participant can keep taking

classes until the end of the Sprint Promotion.

54. The Participant is allowed to change their learning level at any point, and as many times as desired,

without any effect on their qualification for the refund.

AFTER THE SPRINT PROMOTION

55. The Participant eligible for the refund will be notified by phone or email or letter within 45 days of

completion with the results, and whether they are eligible for a refund. The refund will follow, at the

discretion of the Promoter, latest 3 months after completion of the promotion.

56. The refund will be sent in the same currency and to the same payment method used to pay. It is the

responsibility of the Participant that the credit card/account they used is still valid by the time the

Sprint Promotion Rules

Promoter will send the refund, otherwise the refund cannot be sent.

57. Participants who successfully complete the English or Business English Super Sprint will also be

entitled to take an online Linguaskill speaking test by Cambridge for free.
